All that's there is:As far as I can see: By default, if you right-click the My Documents icon on your desktop and click Properties, the tab lets you change the path of this folder. If this doesn't work, you probably have to change the following registry value to 0.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\E xplorer\DisablePersonalDirChange (if value is 1)
(Default) REG_SZ (value not set) NoWelcomeScreen REG_DWORD 0x00000001 (1)
Thanks to everyone for trying to help, I think we should close this thread now (especially on the list). If need be, I know how to change the registry entries or to download the TweakUI utility Marcel mentioned. Interesting though that something you'd have thought to be so essential should prove so *irritatingly* difficult to achieve without extra software for the ordinary user!
Yes, this is getting off topic.
However, I believe the intention behind the 'registry' was to make it not easily accessible to the 'ordinary PC user'.
